Hi J-A The subjective sense of repetition could point to static patterns. Personally, I take the use of Zen in the title of ZMM seriously. One of the principles of Zen is to rid oneself of static patterns. One explanation of this is to always do things for the first time. Another example is the conotation of mindfulness in Zen.
To approach the world in such a way takes some initial discipline, as our nature is to learn by doing and remembering. The Zen approach is not so much as to forget what was done before, but to pay attention and realize that everytime something is done (again), it is completely different. Direct participation in the present can be nothing but new. This is one example of how one can escape static quality and live in the dynamic moment (Quality). MoQ is another way to realize this. Many subscribing to MoQ believe that such a thing is out of our abilities - by definition. This is not the way I see it. I see the precepts of MoQ as a valid way of life. We must not mistake the words in MoQ for what they are pointing at. Such attachment to words is, by definition, static quality. As such, rigid dogmatic following of the text is self-defeating.
